18 months ago I stood in front of a rural, small town city council.

In a run-down, packed, stuffy community room I proceeded to get yelled at and cussed out by all manner of locals.

Some of them high school friends of mine.

My great sin?

Wanting to build 4 new duplexes in the "nice" part of town.

They'd be the first to tell you we need to attract more young families to our town so they can put down some roots.

Just not by me.

It was NIMBY at its finest.

N-Not
I-In
M-My
B-Back
Y-Yard

Their concerns were:
-Lower their property values
-More traffic (4 duplexes...)
-Druggies would rent them

Of course, they would fully support the building of them in a different neighborhood. Maybe the old part of town...

We decided a different community deserved them more. So we gave up the fight.

There hasn't been anything new built in that town since that meeting.

The moral of the story is this:

If we are serious about recruiting and attracting young, eager, motivated families to move to and put down roots in our rural communities...

We need an attitude adjustment.

Near as I can tell, there's not a ton of young folks lining up to buy the 800 sq foot 1940's "fixer-upper" with a dirt floor basement.

No, we need to support the investments made in new housing to attract and keep the next generation of citizens.

That is, unless we want to see rural towns die off.

I still haven’t watched Spider-Man far from home, I don’t think I can watch spider man take on Thanos and then get his ass kicked by the bubble boy.

If Mahomes and Rogers both go to the super bowl and KC wins I’m switching to State Farm.

@HeathieDinkle Does that mean it’s also a limp bizkit day too?
